Definitions
- This invention relates to high energy density cells utilizing solid electrolytes, solid active metal anodes and novel solid cathodes, and more particularly to such cells in which the cathodes contain an active material which is both ionically and electronically conductive.
- a cell should have a high voltage, a high energy density, and a high current capability.
- Prior art solid state cells have however been deficient in one or more of the above desirable characteristics.
- a first requirement and an important part of the operation of any solid state cell is the choice of solid electrolyte.
- a solid electrolyte In order to provide good current capability a solid electrolyte should have a high ionic conductivity which enables the transport of ions through defects in the crystalline electrolyte structure of the electrode-electrolyte system.
- An additional, and one of the most important requirements for a solid electrolyte is that it must be virtually solely an ionic conductor. Conductivity due to the mobility of electrons must be neglible because otherwise the resulting partial internal short circuiting would result in the consumption of electrode materails even under open circuit conditions.
- Solution electrolyte cells include an electronically non-conductive separator between the electrode elements to prevent such a short circuit, whereas solid state cells utilize the solid electrolyte as both electronic separator and the ionic conductive species.
- Electrolytes which are chemically compatible with the high energy density and high voltage anode materials, such as LiI, even when doped for greater conductivity, do not exceed a room temperature conductivity of 5 ⁇ 10 -5 ohm -1 cm -1 .
- high energy density cells with an energy density ranging from about 5-10 Whr/in 3 and a voltage at about 1.9 volts for a Li/doped-LiI/PbI 2 , PbS, Pb cell currently being produced are precluded from having an effective high current capability above 50 ⁇ A/cm 2 at room temperature.
- a further aggravation of the reduced current capability of high energy density cells is the low conductivity (both electronic and ionic) of active cathode materials.
- Conductivity enhancers such as graphite for electronic conductivity and electrolyte for ionic conductivity, while increasing the current capability of the cell to the maximum allowed by the conductivity of the electrolyte, reduce the energy density of the cell because of their volume.
- the present invention involves the incorporation into the cathode of a solid state cell of a material which has the characteristics of being both ionically and electronically conductive as well as being able to function as an active cathode material.
- Normally cathodes require the incorporation of substantial amounts (e.g. over 20 percent by weight) of an ionic conductor such as that used as the electrolyte in order to facilitate ionic flow in the cathode during the cell reaction. This is especially true if the cathodic material is an electronic conductor since otherwise a reduction product would form at the cathode-electrolyte interface which would eventually block off a substantial amount of the ionic flow during discharge.
- cathode active materials which are poor electronic conductors as well require the further incorporation of electronically conductive materials which further reduces the cell's energy capacity.
- Examples of materials having the requisite characteristics of ionic and electronic conductivity and which are cathodically active as well as being compatible with electrolytes used in high energy density cells include the following metal chalcogenides: CoTe 2 , Cr 2 S 3 , HfS 2 , HfSe 2 , HfTe 2 , IrTe 2 , MoS 2 , MoSe 2 , MoTe 2 , NbS 2 , NbSe 2 , NbTe 2 , NiTe 2 , PtS 2 , PtSe 2 , PtTe 2 , SnS 2 , SnSSe, SnSe 2 , TaS 2 , TaSe 2 , TaTe 2 , TiS 2 , TiSe 2 , TiTe 2 , VS 2 , VSe 2 , VTe 2 , WS 2 , WSe 2 , WTe 2 , ZrS 2 , ZrSe 2 , and Zr
- non-stoichiometric metal chalcogenide compounds such as Li x TiS 2 where x ⁇ 1, which to some extent contain the complexed form of one of the cathode materials with the anodic cation and which are believed to be intermediate reaction products during cell discharge.
- Further materials which are ionically-electronically conductive, cathode active include metal oxides such as TiO 2 , MoO 3 , Ta 2 O 5 , V 2 O 5 , and WO 3 and non-stoichiometric metal oxides such as non-stoichiometric manganese oxide; metal iodides such as CdI 2 , FeI 2 , GeI 2 , MnI 2 , TiI 2 , TlI 2 , VI 2 and YbI 2 ; metal hydroxides such as Cd(OH) 2 , Fe(OH) 2 , Mn(OH) 2 , and Ni(OH) 2 ; and non-metal chalcogenides such as SiTe 2 and CS n wherein n is between about 0.001 and 1.0.
- the CS n compound is made in accordance with the method set forth in an article by R. C. Croft in the Australian Journal of Chemistry, Vol. 9, pp. 201-205, 1956, the disclosure of
- the ionically-electronically conductive cathode active material In order for the ionically-electronically conductive cathode active material to be commercially useful in high voltage cells with lithium anodes it should preferably be able to provide a voltage couple with lithium at least an O.C.V. of 1.5 volts and most preferably above 2 volts.
- the operating voltage of the ionically-electronically conductive cathode active material should preferably be roughly equivalent to the voltage of the higher energy density non-conductive cathode active material mixed therewith to avoid detrimental voltage fluctuations.
- a further criteria for the above cathodic material is that both the ionic and electronic conductivities of the cathode active material should range between 10 -10 and 10 2 ohm -1 cm -1 with a preferred ionic conductivity of more than 10 -6 and an electronic conductivity greater than 10 -3 , all at room temperature.
- the ionically-electronically conductive, active cathode material must be compatible with the solid electrolytes used in the high energy density cells.
- the solid electrolytes used in high energy density lithium cells are lithium salts and have room temperature ionic conductivities greater than 1 ⁇ 10 -9 ohm -1 cm -1 . These salts can either be in the pure form or combined with conductivity enhancers such that the current capability is improved thereby.
- Examples of lithium salts having the requisite conductivity for meaningful cell utilization include lithium iodide (LiI) and lithium iodide admixed with lithium hydroxide (LiOH) and aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ), with the latter mixture being referred to as LLA and disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,713,897.
- High energy density solid electrolyte cells may have as their anodes materials similar to lithium which have high voltage and low electrochemical equivalent weight characteristics.
- Suitable anodic materials include metals from Groups IA and IIA of the Periodic Table such as sodium, potassium, beryllium, magnesium and calcium as well as aluminum from Group IIIA and other metals above hydrogen in the EMF series.
- Cells with other anodes can utilize corresponding salts as electrolytes, such as sodium salts for a cell with a sodium anode. Additionally, electrolyte salts with useful conductivities and having a cation of a metal of a lower EMF than that of the anode metal may also be useful.
- the aforementioned ionically-electronically conductive, cathode active materials react with the ions of the anode (e.g. lithium cations) to form a non-stoichiometric complex during the discharge of the cell.
- the ions of the anode e.g. lithium cations
- This complexing of cations allows them to move from site to site thereby providing ionic conductivity.
- the above compounds provide the free electrons necessary for electronic conductivity.
- the above compounds are admixed with other compounds or elements which provide a greater energy density but which cannot be utilized in and of themselves because of their inability to function as ionic and/or electronic conductors.
- the inclusion of the ionically-electronically conductive, cathode active material thereby increases the capacity of the cell by obviating the need for non-dischargeable conductive materials.
- the conductive, active material is homogeneously admixed with the higher energy density compound the realizable utilization of the so formed cells approximates that of the theoretical.
- a limiting factor in solid state cell performance is the conductivity of the cell reaction product. A low conductivity product results in large internal resistance losses which effectively terminate cell usefulness.
- the complexed reaction product retains conductivity thereby enabling full utilization of other active cathode materials with non-conductive reaction products which are in proximity therewith.
- the inclusion of the ionically-electronically conductive cathode active materials provides a more uniform distribution of the reaction product throughout the cathode structure because of their ionically conductive characteristics which provide a homogeneously dispersed product. Since the reaction products of the present ionically conductive materials retain conductivity, further utilization of the cell is also possible with the non-conductive active material in conductive proximity with the conductive active material.
- a small amount of electrolyte can also be included in the cathode structure in order to blur the interface between cathode and electrolyte thereby providing more intimitate electrical contact between the cathode and the electrolyte. This enables the cell to operate at higher current drains for longer periods of time.
- the electrolyte inclusion can increase the ionic conductivity of the cathode should the ionically conductive cathode active material have a lower conductivity than that of the electrolyte. This inclusion however, if made, should not exceed 10% by weight since greater amounts would merely decrease the energy density of the cell with little if any further tradeoff in terms of current drain capacity. Therefore, cathode active materials provide at least 90% of the total cathode weight.
- non-conductive chalcogenide refers to a chalcogenide which is non-conductive with respect to electrons and/or ions produced by discharge reaction
- Non-conductive chalcogenides in and of themselves normally cannot be effectively used as cathodes in solid state cells unless they contain substantial amounts of ionic and electronic conductors which constitute 30% or more of the total cathode by weight.
- non-conductive chalcogenide cathode of an ionically and electronically conductive cathode active material enables the usage of the non-conductive material without the concomitant severe losses of energy capacity.
- non-conductive chalcogenides which can be admixed with the ionically-electronically conductive cathode materials include silver sulfide (Ag 2 S), lead sulfide (PbS), copper sulfide (CuS), lead selenide (PbSe), lead telluride (PbTe), antimony sulfides (Sb 2 S 5 ) and (Sb 2 S 3 ), bismuth sulfide (Bi 2 S 3 ), tin telluride (SnTe), mercury sulfide (HgS), arsenic sulfide (As 2 S 3 ), arsenic selenide (As 2 Se 3 ), antimony telluride (Sb 2 Te 3 ) and
- the cell is discharged at 72° C. under a load of 188 ⁇ A.
- the cell realizes 2 milliamp hours (mAH) to 2 volts, about 31 mAH to 1.5 volts and about 38 mAH to 1 volt.
- a solid state cell made in accordance with the cell of EXAMPLE 1 is discharged at room temperature under a load of 36 ⁇ A.
- the cell realizes about 22 mAH to 1.5 volts and about 27 mAH to 1 volt.
- a solid state cell is made in accordance with the cell of EXAMPLE 1 but with Sb 2 S 3 in place of As 2 S 3 .
